I have been pretty quiet about the site in the last few months. Mostly because I don't have the time and energy to work on it that much.
My main problem is that I don't get anything back from it, besides data about the perks.
I still keep it online, but don't expect too much updates, only if it breaks down or when new killers get annouced.

I know people still use the site quite a lot, but I decided to disable the weekly shrine at the front page. It just takes me too much time to make sure it shows the right data every week, so I disabled it all together.

One more thing. Should I reset the rating of a perk when it get's reworked? I didn't do that when borrowed time got reworked, but I read about some people thinking it should have been reset.

You can post any questions or suggestions in this thread and I'll be happy to answer all your posts.

I love the website and I think a lot of us are grateful for it. A "perk builder thingy" would be cool but i was thinking that it would be great if you could give the killers their own view where you could rate perks on that killer. For instance monitor and abuse is an okay perk on most killers but is super stronk on Myers, the view I'm talking about would show which perks are the best on each killer.

PS. if you are ever interested in driving more traffic to your website, Im an SEO (search engine optimizer) and could probably help some. My way of saying thanks.

Thank you for the nice comment. I was also considering to break the perks apart per killer, but never got to it.
Do you think it's a good idea to just make the killer images clickable and have a detail page where you can rate the perks or do you think it's also good to link them from the startpage?
I want to keep the site easy to understand and with not too many buttons, but I also want people to be able to find the new pages easily.

Help in SEO is always welcome :) I did a little bit of SEO work when I first started to build the site, but I'm no expert in that. What do you recommend?

I'd say you've provided an invaluable resource to the DBD community. I dunno how charitable the community is, but utilizing some sort of sponsor or backer service would be something to compensate you for your efforts. You definitely deserve something for this. Just my two cents...

Thank you!
I used to have a donate button, but nobody ever donated, so I removed it.
I might use the page to promote my own (non-dbd related) app, but I also don't want to spam the whole page with ads.

I haven't decided yet if I will reset all the ratings or only the ratings of the the perks that changed.
The decision is based on how much the changes will impact certain perks indirectly. (for example: exhaustion based perks.)

The one thing with make your choice is that it's excellent on high mobility Killers or Hag. one of the best perks you can put on them other than that it's a pretty average or below perk on everyone else
